Raf & Robert

06.02.17

It all began when the Robert Mapplethorpe Foundation contacted Raf Simons and asked him to collaborate on something. He said yes and so the Spring Summer 2017 Menswear collection was born. There is no outfit from the show that doesn’t feature a photographic print of a Mapplethorpe and if you haven’t seen the full collection yet – be sure to check it out. I dream of one of the striped billowing shirts, a cropped knit vest and a grey chunky knit. This is a one of the campaign images – pretty enough to hang on my wall.
